Thank you for giving me an editor review, and thank you for those encouragin words. Also, all of those "automated" edits that I make are all manual. (Very tedious work). Thanks again, Juliancolton ^{The storm still blows...} 20:03, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

RE: Email

Hello, Katalaveno. Thanks for your kind e-mail. I am really new here and I will need some advice how to better contribute to WIKIPEDIA. I understand how important is what you are doing here. Such a magnificent project as WIKIPEDIA needs good and efficient admins to keep everything in order.

With respect, Multipundit (talk) 21:22, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

well "Katalaveno" means " I understand" in Greek that's why i thought you were of Greek ancestry. DefendEurope (talk) 00:44, 16 March 2008 (UTC) where did you find those Greeks? did you go to Πελοπόννησος? my father is from Peloponnisos Highlands.

RFA thanks

		Thanks for the support
		Thanks for your support on my request for adminship, which passed 92/2/2. Trustworthy and professional, you say? If only that could go on job resumes in real life, but for now, that's good enough for me to wield the mop of justice. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 02:47, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank you!

Thank you for your support in my RFA. The final vote count was (73/3/1), so I am now an administrator. Please let me know if at any stage you need help, or if you have comments on how I am doing as an admin. Have a nice day! :) Aleta ^Sing 17:07, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank you.

Thanks very much for reverting the anon's vandalism to my talk page. Much appreciated! ---RepublicanJacobite_{The'FortyFive'} 01:53, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

No problem at all. κaτaʟaveno^T_C 01:54, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

It was no problem . Seems you do a fair bit of vandal-swatting as well. I'm happy to have helped. Steve Crossin (talk to me) 02:56, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Oh yeah. Huggle is great. So fast, low amount of bugs. New one month record? What's the current record? I'm at 8678 at the moment for this , what would a record be? And, I haven't been Huggling in over a week or so, I've been kinda busy with the Mediation Cabal. But I couldn't resist a bit of swatting :P Steve Crossin (talk to me) 03:22, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Hehe. Chained to my computer? Haha. Nope, haven't been chained to it. I don't think. Maybe I could reach 10,000 edits in one month? Well, as I reverted 2 cases of vandalism on your page, inn, I think you deserve this:

Help on link

Do you see this link in your browser? It is a PDF file a research paper on a bridge. Whenever I tried to view it, my browser displaying "Connection not found". I asked another editor, his browser is also not displaying the link. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 01:26, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm, then the problem is with the file. But still I can view it as HTML [1]. I have no idea why this is happening. But thanks for your help. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 01:33, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

No problem! κaτaʟaveno^T_C 01:35, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

		I bet you're getting sick of getting these now, but I can't not praise your excellent Anti-Vandal efforts. Well done and keep up the good work. :-) Lra drama 19:33, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

I see the point you are making, yes. My experience of vandal fighting however, has took me to the recent changes at a variety of different times of the day, and sometimes it can be dead out there, in which case, I to other things elsewhere on Wikipedia. Other times, I am simply overwhelmed by the amount of vandalism. I think most vandal fighters have a good idea of how intense it is, but your point is worth taking note of. This is because I don't have Huggle. I just use the admin rollback. With using different tools, which probably give different impressions of how busy it is, that may cause conflict of the opinions. I think that is an even bigger issue than time of day. However, I do not know of any criteria. It would be useful to have however, to avoid conflict. Do you think we should maybe bring this to the attention of the rest of the community? Lra drama 20:06, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Well, let me know if you want to take this matter forward, and when you do, we can open a discussion on the template talkpage. :-) Lra drama 13:26, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

The vandals love you. Would you like me to try and get your page semi-protected for a while or something, or are you ok with it? special, random, Merkinsmum 00:41, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
